    True or False.

    Floyd made Manny a take the **** offer of 40 million (less than 30% of the revenue)

    Manny came back with a counter offer.

    Floyd didn't come back with a yes or a counter offer. He just signed to fight someone else.

    Was it all just a game to floyd. He called manny out for weeks, made all these stupid statements on twitter.

    Now they start negotiating money, and floyd walks away. If your unhappy with Manny's offer, you'd make another counter offer. right.

    If you really wanted the fight like you convinced the world you did, You'd have counter offered. Not ust flat out reject and walk away.

    True or False

    before floyd made manny an offer manny said hed take less(which is assumed from a 50/50.......when floyd made an offer pacs side said anything less than 50/50 is unacceptable(arum was even quoted at one time as saying 50/50 wouldnt work for them).......floyd calls his own shots....haymon devises plans....brokers deals...at the end of the day though floyd knows whats going on and has the final say.....arum and pac dont even communicate well

    who really knows about what pac/arum said to floyds offer...did they even actually send a counter back to floyd?

    all i know is this....after pac/jmm arum talked about making a fourth fight and didnt mention floyd.......arum then said a floyd fight wasnt in the plans cause he wouldnt be available(said he didnt know if floyd could get licensed or could even be available).....then floyd pushes his sentence back and all of the sudden pac has a nasty cut from the jmm fight that wont let him fight may 5th.....then arum starts spouting off like "we cant have a stadium up by may 5th...but maybe late may"...when he knows damn well floyd has to fight may 5th.....

    when floyd reserved the mgm for cinco de mayo arum was livid.....he wanted that date.....arum was quoted as saying something along the lines of "thats not how you do business if you want to negotiate a fight....well remember this".....

    FALSE. Hell Arum admitted that he refused to answer Shaefer's phone calls. Not phone call but phone "calls." All the money **** could have been worked out if negotiations actually took place but one side refused to even get into them.

    Arum just recently said that "he would like to make the fight for November but doesn't know who he should talk to regarding Floyd." /thread

    Ive said this from day one. this is all a BS Hype Gimmick. Why would the biggest fight ever happen in May? Mayeather KNEW hes was gonna fight Cotto when he announced the May date already. The Pac May bout is on at the end of the year. Those mthrfkers behind the scenes sure are good at doing their jobs. Everyone is eating this up. The Rivalry is outta this world.


    If its not happening at the end of the year, it never will.

    "thats not how you do business if you want to negotiate a fight....well remember this"

    What he meant by that was. If you want to fight Manny Pac, you don't book the stadium and the date 1st and ask them to turn up.
    That is all to be negotiated between everyone.

    Yes
    Yes.


    But my question, was after that. after all the arguing over stadiums and dates etc.
    They moved past all that. Manny said he would take less.
    Then there was all this arguing over date and venue.

    Manny then said fine i'll fight May 5th at MGM but it has to be 50/50.

    Floyd offers 70/30
    Manny Counters with 50/50

    Floyd walks away!!!

    Who's Schaefer?

    Remember No one represents Gay Fraudtweetyweather? He is his own man.

    Why would a GBP represent him in negotiations? Did they use Schaefer to negotiate with Cotto? Yes or No

    It was all facade!!!! He got the date reserved for a supposed fight that at the onset was very difficult to negotiate? WTF
     
  14. manny pacquiao isnt very bright. i dont know why in the world he publicly declared that he would accept less money than money. what did he think would happen? he should just keep his mouth shut and let arum the puppet master do the talking.

    Well Arum should have thought about that before he booked Cowboys stadium. He also should have thought about his words when he said that Manny could fight Marquez May 5th when Floyd appeared to be unavailable. Bottom line is that Shaefer was calling Arum to negotiate and Arum said that he didn't answer his calls. Funny how people ignore that.
